Grade 11 DP Classes:

Grade 11 students should have met with their university case manager, if they had any questions regarding the DP course selections and future university applications.

Night School:

We have had one Night Schools so far, which was on the UK bmarshall@ris.ae university applications. We had 88 families attend this session, which was the first Night School session open to parents in two years! Unfortunately, due to our ISAMs software breakdown, communication for this event was less than adequate. There will be another Night School UK session in the spring and again next fall. I do have Loom recordings from a few years ago if you need the information right now. The next Night School session will focus on US university applications at 6:00 pm, October 13 th in the auditorium. I hope to see many of you out for this event.

The Night School expectation for DP students/families is to attend/view at least one Night School session for each of your possible university destinations.

University Visits:

University reps are back to travelling, so we hope to get some live visits on our campus for students and parents. NYUAD will be visiting our campus at 12:20 pm October 11 th in the Black Box. Boston University couldn’t schedule a live campus visit, so they will have a virtual visit with us at 6:30 pm, October 26 th . University of Toronto will visit us live at 12:20 pm November 10 th in the auditorium. Strict ADEK regulations are making campus visits difficult, so we need to attend some virtual sessions as well as university events in the community. I will try to keep you informed of these events.
